In The New Society, Peter Drucker extended his previous works The
Future of Industrial Man and The Concept of the Corporation into a
systematic, organized analysis of the industrial society that
emerged out of World War II. He analyzes large business
enterprises, governments, labor unions, and the place of the
individual within the social context of these institutions.
Although written when the industrial society he describes was at
its peak of productivity, Drucker's basic conceptual frame has well
stood the test of time. Following publication of the first printing
of The New Society, George G. Higgins wrote in Commonweal that
"Drucker has analyzed, as brilliantly as any modem writer, the
problems of industrial relations in the individual company or
'enterprise.' He is thoroughly at home in economics, political
science, industrial psychology, and industrial sociology, and has
succeeded admirably in harmonizing the findings of all four
disciplines and applying them meaningfully to the practical
problems of the 'enterprise.'" This well expresses contemporary
critical opinion. Peter Drucker's new introduction places The New
Society in a contemporary perspective and affirms its continual
relevance to industry in the mid-1990s. Economists, political
scientists, psychologists, and professionals in management and
industry will find this seminal work a useful tool for
understanding industry and society at large.
